I keep a little wire next to the charger to tap the positive lead of the shutoff battery to the working battery right next to it in the charger. The chargers already connect the negatives so just a quick tap on the positive brings them back.
It’s worth noting that the job of auto-mounting a removable drive is often hidden behind the popular file managers, if you want to do it without one you are probably looking for the “udiskie” application that does this in a more agonistic/generic sense. https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie. With that running in the background to automount, then you can just access the drives from their auto mountpoints in the default location of /run/media/username/drive_label
I suppose that makes sense given that information is encoded as a series of key frames interspersed by 'I-frames" that simply encode the delta to the previous key-frame when using most compressed video algorithms. So cutting in-between key-frames doesn’t really make sense since the I-frame would no longer have anything to reference it’s delta to.
